In this article, we review current understanding of the epidemiology and etiology of disparities in asthma. We also highlight current and emerging literature on solutions to tackle disparities while underscoring gaps and pressing future directions.
Tailored, multicomponent approaches including the home, school, and clinician-based interventions show great promise. Managing asthma in disadvantaged populations can be challenging as they tend to have disproportionately worse outcomes due to a multitude of factors. However, multifaceted, innovative interventions that are sustainable and scalable are key to improving outcomes.
在本文中,我们回顾了目前对哮喘差异的流行病学和病因学的理解。我们还重点介绍了当前和新出现的关于解决差异的文献,同时强调了差距和紧迫的未来方向。
包括家庭、学校和基于临床医生的干预措施在内的量身定制的多组分方法显示出巨大的前景。在弱势群体中管理哮喘可能具有挑战性,因为由于多种因素,他们往往会有不成比例的更差结果。然而,可持续且可扩展的多方面创新干预措施是改善结果的关键。
